(STATS) – It’s doesn’t matter where a team is located in the preseason poll or how many of its starters are returning. There’s one player on every Big South team who is bringing confidence to his teammates.
The quarterback.
All six teams in the smallest FCS conference have their primary quarterback back to lead the way into the 2017 season.
Will it tighten the title race? Perhaps. But it couldn’t be any closer at the top going into the new campaign. Two-time defending champion Charleston Southern and Kennesaw State tied as co-favorites in the Big South preseason poll of 18 coaches and media members, announced Tuesday at media day in Charlotte.
